Find out how the software industry is changing the world at Webit.Festival

Three of the top speakers on Webit's Dev Summit - Don Dodge, Peter Heinrich and Michael "Monty" Widenius

The next massive digital transformation of the world economy will be led by a perfect storm of several different, but equally important trends in the software industry. Open source development, machine learning and artificial intelligence, changing infrastructure and customer-first design all have the power to be game-changers and to transform the world we live in.

This combination will create new opportunities for startup creation and industry disruption. The process will put additional pressure on the already established enterprises to abolish the older technology and reinvent themselves.

One of the common things between the main industry disruptors nowadays is the use of open code software and still managing to monetize their ideas. The other is that they all perceive their businesses as software based.

Webit has always been all about the future of enterprise and policy-making. That is why on this edition of Webit.Festival we have invited top experts in the software development industry. During the Dev Summit will share their experience on topics, such as what is DevOps, how can you streamline and automate Ops, Agile & DevOps, Boosting developers productivity with DevOps and managing deployments and infrastructure with DevOps.
